Primordial Era: I, the Thirteenth Witch, had my innermost thoughts overheard by my older siblings.

Having made up his mind, Ye Kai did not hesitate and immediately chuckled, "Master, such a great favor cannot just be remembered in my heart; it must be repaid."

"repay?"

Upon hearing Ye Kai's words, Styx was taken aback, somewhat surprised.

"What? The cult leader doesn't want to repay the debt, does he?"

Ye Kai didn't care about Styx's reaction, and instead said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Styx's expression changed even more.

He hadn't expected Ye Kai to be so blunt.

Moreover, he had just mentioned the matter of gratitude, and now, faced with this situation, he couldn't very well refuse.

He remained silent for a long time, then could only manage a dry laugh, "Daoist Master is joking. How could I not want to repay it? It's just that I have nothing of value, so it's really difficult for me to repay it."

As he said this, he chuckled a few times, trying to brush it off.

"Who says there aren't any? The sect leader has quite a few treasures; one or two top-grade innate spiritual treasures would suffice as a token gesture, wouldn't it?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Kai couldn't help but smile, as if it were true.

As he said this, he had already made up his mind.

"Just one or two top-grade innate spiritual treasures..."

Upon hearing Ye Kai's words, Minghe's expression darkened further, revealing a hint of hostility.

He possesses many treasures, each one extremely important, not to mention top-grade innate spiritual treasures, which he would never easily give away!

"Daojun, you jest. My top-grade innate spiritual treasures are all items for severing corpses, such as the Avici Primordial Slaughtering Blade and the Karmic Fire Red Lotus. Don't give them away!"

As he said this, Styx's laughter was no longer just dry; it carried a hint of coldness.

Faced with this situation, Ye Kai remained unconcerned. "Who said I wanted those spiritual treasures? I heard that you possess the Dao Profound Origin Water Control Flag. This item is destined for me. I wonder if the Sect Leader would be willing to part with it?"

By saying this, he had already made his intentions clear.

After acquiring the Apricot Yellow Flag and the Flame Light Flag, Ye Kai secretly set his sights on the other five innate flags.

He had assumed that the other five innate flags should also be on the Treasure Dividing Cliff.

For some reason, not only were the Plain Cloud Banner and the Profound Origin Water Control Banner missing, but even the most likely Azure Lotus Treasure Light Banner was gone!

Since these innate five-directional flags are not on the Treasure Dividing Cliff, they can only be in the hands of their original owners.

It was for this reason that when Ye Kai thought of giving Styx a warning, he began to consider the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag in Styx's possession.

Just now, Styx severed the Corpse of Obsession, which revealed that he used the Karmic Fire Red Lotus and the Avici Primordial Slaughter Swords to sever the three corpses respectively.

Therefore, the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag is not an item for dismembering corpses!

Even if he were to demand it, it wouldn't have much impact on the River Styx.

Given this, he had no more reservations.

"this……"

Hearing Ye Kai's words, Styx became even more hesitant.

He didn't expect Ye Kai to directly demand the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag.

Furthermore, after Ye Kai demanded the Apricot Yellow Flag at the Treasure Dividing Cliff, he quickly understood Ye Kai's intentions.

It is precisely because of this,

Although he wanted to refuse directly, he couldn't help but hesitate.

If Ye Kai truly came for the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag, and even instructed him to establish the Asura Cult beforehand, yet he was stingy in offering it, he could completely offend Ye Kai.

However, if Ye Kai is offended,

"This boy is too vindictive, and on top of that, he's connected to the Asura Cult..."

If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have acted that way and given him that chance!

Thinking of this, Styx felt even more remorseful.

At this moment, he realized where his problem lay.

If he had remained polite just now, even if Ye Kai had come for the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag, he probably wouldn't have dared to speak up.

But his attitude just now made Ye Kai feel completely unconcerned!

Miscalculation!

only,

"To be honest, Daoist Lord, I do indeed possess that Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag. However, I truly use it to imprison a rare innate insect, so it's not advisable to act rashly. I hope Daoist Lord will understand!"

At that moment, Styx concealed his brilliance, bowed to Ye Kai, and spoke as if it were a serious matter.

After all, Ye Kaigang had just guided him to establish a great religion and had done him a great favor by educating him. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he couldn't go back on his word.

However, since the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag was indeed useful to him, he simply told the truth.

"Imprisoned strange insects? What kind of strange insects?"

Hearing Styx's words, Ye Kai was taken aback and said with some surprise.

"This insect is called the Bloodwing Black Mosquito, one of the five primordial insects of the ancient world. It can devour essence blood and magical power. If it is released, it will surely wreak havoc on the region. I hope the Daoist Lord will consider this carefully!"

Upon hearing Ye Kai's question, Styx did not hesitate and immediately explained the origin of the Bloodwing Black Mosquito.

"Blood-winged Black Mosquito? It's her?!"

Upon hearing Styx's words, Ye Kai was also taken aback, not expecting to hear about the Bloodwing Black Mosquito here!

"Does Daojun also know about the Bloodwinged Black Mosquito?"

Seeing Ye Kai's performance, Minghe was also taken aback and showed a look of surprise.

The Bloodwing Black Mosquito was born in the Blood Sea and fought with him for countless years. He had only recently trapped it with the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag.

Its origins are unknown to most in the primordial world, and Ye Kai, who rarely travels there, should certainly not know about them.

But now,

Ye Kai actually knew about its existence?!

"Of course I know that the Blood-Winged Black Mosquito, the Six-Winged Golden Cicada, the Multi-Eyed Golden Centipede, the Nine-Tailed Earth Scorpion, and the Nine-Headed Insect are collectively known as the Five Primordial Insects, all of which are extremely ferocious beasts. In the primordial world, who doesn't know them?"

Ye Kai smiled faintly, then spoke as if it were a serious matter.

"Six-winged golden cicada, multi-eyed golden centipede... Daoist is truly learned and knowledgeable. I only know that the latter four exist, but I don't know their origins."

Upon hearing Ye Kai's words, Minghe couldn't help but show a hint of shame.

After all, he only learned about the Five Innate Insects from the Bloodwing Black Mosquito.

As for the other four innate five insects, he had no idea of ​​their existence, let alone their specific names.

Not only the Styx River, but also the powerful beings of the primordial world who were watching this scene, couldn't help but show a hint of shame when they heard Ye Kai's words.

In the primordial era, everyone knew of him?

Sorry, they don't know!

Ok,

I really don't know!

"I didn't expect Ye Kai to know these things? Could these be the inherited memories of the ancestral witches of the Witch Clan?"

"Very likely! After all, the ancestral witches of the witch clan were all transformed from the essence and blood of Pangu!"

"It seems that the authenticity of Pangu is still debatable."

"..."

By saying this, they were already giving themselves a way out.

In the sea of ​​blood, Ye Kai noticed Styx's expression upon hearing this and was taken aback. "You really don't know?"

In his view, the five innate insects and the four chaotic monkeys were probably not secrets in the prehistoric world.

That's why he just said it outright.

To his surprise, Styx knew less than he did.

"I'm sorry to have troubled you, Daoist Master. I truly had no idea."

Styx blushed, feeling even more embarrassed.

Seeing Styx's reaction, Ye Kai secretly became certain of himself.

After all, Styx's reaction didn't seem fake; he must genuinely not know.

"That's true. I have memories of the future, which is equivalent to having the entire treasure trove of knowledge of the prehistoric world, so it's not surprising that I know things that they don't."

Moreover, creatures like the Six-Winged Golden Cicada only appeared during the Investiture of the Gods or even Journey to the West, so it's not surprising that they don't know about them now.

"In that case, perhaps I can..."

With this thought in mind, a glint of light flashed in Ye Kai's eyes, and he had already made his decision in secret.

"If I can help you get rid of the Bloodwing Black Mosquitoes, could you please give me the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag?"

Ye Kai then asked Styx.
